An Amazing Binding Technique

11 years ago

Came across this link on another forum I visit. I think this is an amazingly clever way to apply binding and have never heard of it before. But I have only been quilting for a few years and there is a LOT I don't know. lol

Anyway, wanted to share with you. Also check out her post on Striped Binding...another clever technique.

I don't remember seeing anything like that, either. Looks pretty neat (and easy) if a person wants to take the time, or has a small quilt. The striped one would have more seams than I'd want to play with. TFS.....

I love the binding to the edge on the HST quilt! Not so sure if I want to change the binding color every few inches. Thanks for posting this - I may try it in the future.

I don't know anything about blogs...can y'all tell me how to find the entry about the striped binding?

Thanks so much for sharing this Murphy. I've added this blog to my list of favorites; I'm planning a modern quilt in the future and her binding idea would be fabulous!

Thanks, Sharon - that was the one place I didn't look! LOL

The striped binding looks like way too much work...I'd just use striped fabric if I wanted that look!
